Auto Assembler (Former Employee) – Chicago, IL – October 18, 2018

Hostile work environment
Assembler (Former Employee) – Louisville, KY – October 17, 2018
Would not wish this job on anyone regardless of benefits. Management creates an us vs. them atmosphere and are always negative. You are always presumed guilty and punished with false accusations. Easily labeled by appearance. They have punishment jobs and use them to their advantage.

Cons
Hostile work environment

Lots of hours, same thing different day
Engineering Specialist (Former Employee) – Kansas City, MO – October 15, 2018
Zero work life balance. Plant is not climate controlled, summers are brutal. Management is poor. Takes too long to get simple things done due to convoluted and unnecessary chain of command.
Job security
Assembly Line Worker (Former Employee) – Louisville, KY – October 13, 2018
The lack of job security really hurts the company. I’ve been a temporary employee for over a year with hopes of being hired in. Ford is ran completely on seniority and does not hire in based on work ethic. Management is very poor,
Pros
2 paid breaks
Cons
Management

Poor low level direction.
Designer (Former Employee) – Dearborn, MI – October 12, 2018
As a graduate of the old apprenticeship program and years of volunteering for new training, I never was considered for promotion because I did not have a degree. However I was used for training new people or new projects repeatedly over the years. By the way, that was over 35 years!
Pros
Health care
Cons
Poor advancement opportunities without degrees.
Production is very fast paced and efficient
Engine Operator (Current Employee) – Dearborn, MI – October 12, 2018
The Company Is A Great Company To Work For. Great Benefits and a lot of overtime. The work place is always safe and a great place to learn a lot of new things. I love this job the most because you can set so many goals for yourself to accomplish being positions working here. If you put in all of your effort you should have no problem working here at all.

Empresa de grande porte e comprometida

The job is sort of what you make it and is dependent on your seniority.
Line Worker (Former Employee) – Dearborn, MI – October 10, 2018
I had my good and bad days at Ford but I can say overall it is a very nice job to have and to keep down the line in the future. Very established franchise and it is very hard to get in so once you’re in you want to stay. You’re working for one of the best companies in the United States and at times you have to remind yourself how lucky you are to have such a coveted job.
Pros
Fun, decent pay, good hours, benefits, team oriented environment
Cons
Short breaks, fast paced, stressful
Productive work place
Assembly Line Worker (Current Employee) – Dearborn, MI – October 10, 2018

Cons
Half our lunches
